Abstract:

    This article examines models for managing the resilience and continuity of public functions in the context of disasters and crises. The focus is placed on identifying critical interdependencies among essential public services and the possibilities for their maintenance under extreme conditions. Contemporary concepts of integrated management, based on proactive planning and adaptive response, are presented. International best practices and standards related to the resilience of infrastructural and social systems are analyzed. Mechanisms for institutional coordination and interaction with civil society are discussed. The study also proposes mathematical approaches for risk assessment and for evaluating the effectiveness of continuity measures. The results contribute to the development of policies and strategies aimed at enhancing societal resilience against future threats.
